A seventeen-year-old student opened fire at a private Christian school in Madison, Wisconsin, USA. As a result, two people were killed, and another six were injured.

This was reported by RBK-Ukraine citing CNN.

According to preliminary data, among the victims were one teacher and a senior student. The condition of another remains critical. Four others sustained moderate and minor injuries.

As CNN writes, Abundant Life is a non-denominational Christian school that serves children from kindergarten through high school. At the time of the shooting, there were approximately 390 students in the school.

The police stated that the girl opened fire with a 9mm pistol. The motive for her actions remains unknown.

"A report of the shooting was received by the police around 11:00 AM local time. Officers, who were 5 kilometers away from the school, quickly arrived at the scene. They did not use their weapons inside the building, as the suspect likely took her own life before their arrival," the publication reported.

According to law enforcement, the shooter was 15-year-old Natalie Rupnow, who was using the name Samantha. The police revealed that the girl inflicted a fatal gunshot wound on herself.
